The Government wanted the Technical Experts Group (TEG) (loosely referred to as Panel, Committee etc.) to study whether the amendments proposed to the Indian Patent law will fall foul of the commitments India made to the Intellectual Property Regime through the TRIPS (Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights) agreement. The WTO’s Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (this is the official full form for TRIPS), negotiated in the 1986-94 Uruguay Round, introduced intellectual property rules into the multilateral trading system for the first time.

The more I read you, the better I feel. It's great to believe that I am going to be a part of a league which constitutes of people like you.

Well.I also have a query besides being impressed by the contents of the site.

There are various type of committees/ panels/commissions/group(s) etc. empowered to look into various affairs. Where do I get this differentiation and their respective authorities? And which part of our statute vests such powers in them?

@Kushagra: You will have to dig deep into various sources (the web, papers, books, reports etc.) to know about them. Some of them have statutory backing. Many of them don't. Some have judicial backing. But by and large they are all administrative in nature. The government has the inherent power to appoint them to study various aspects and request them to submit a report. Where such reports are commissioned by Parliament/Assembly, it is to them that they are submitted. Only then are they made public. Where they are submitted to government, there is no such privilege issue. There is no single statute covering such creation, monitoring or follow up of committees etc.

sir could u please tell us something abpout parliamentary committees ...when and ahy are they formend , who heads them , how many members are there , and any important event associated with any of them ..
